i love a big voluminous coat do i, especially if its nicely fitted at the shoulder and has shiny brass buttons. this girl is so pretty! i love those velvet booties!one thing though– a practical consideration, not an aesthetic one– if it’s cold enough to be wearing that coat, surely it’s not warm enough to venture out of doors sans socks?

This page always inspires me to get something old I’ve been ignoring but is really great out of my closet, to play around with colors, mix things around, be more daring, finally start having FUN with my clothes and style!

That totally sounds like an ad or something but I mean it!!! Thank you sartorialist!!!

This is so bizarre. I saw this girl this morning in the deli near my office in the flatiron district! I thought I was going insane. Same coat, jeans, shoes (no socks again). In person she’s tiny! (I’m 5’8″ and I towered over her wearing no heels!) I guess the people on Sartorialist really get around..

You have shot this girl before Sart. SHe was standing on a cobblestone ground with an orangebrick building in the background with the gratest smile on her face looking into the sun. She was wearing a red and navy collared button smock and black heels with a black handbag.

She looks rich and sophisticated, I’ll give her that. But this look is stereotypically Manhattan, and it’s predictable. I wish it was more inspiring like the cast of Sx And The City wardrobe by Patricia Field.
